Hey there!
To solve this, we can divide the numbers 7/12 and 2/3 . . .
7 x 3 = 21
12 x 2 = 24
= 21/24
Simplifying 21/24 . . .
21/24 = 7/8 <-----------
To make sure the answer 7/8 is correct, we can multiply the numbers 7/8 and 2/3 . . .
7 x 2 = 14
8 x 3 = 24
= 14/24
Simplifying 14/24 . . .
14/24 = 7/12
The number 7/8 is correct.
The length of the towel is 7/8 square yards.
